TLMID CREAIl-.,s

Though the curfcw's call clears the
streets and leaves their darkness 10 the
women alone, yet they seem to be in
great fear lest they should be seen Of
men, and on the approach Of ono OF these
much-Ieared creatures the proCeaadcrs
run together like hens, and try to hide
their heads beneath each others clothes,
or gaze intently on the blank wall Of the
nearest house, under whose caves they
run as though TO get as far out Of the
reach Of danger as is possible. Some Of
these women are richly dressed. and it is
therefore a great temptation 10 the law
less TO waylgy and rob them rotwitii-
standing the fact that, in addition 10
violating the law in not obeyinq the cur
few call, Che punishment for theft is de-
capitatioG. At call from one Of these
distressed women all OF the adjoining
householdeTs must rush out and lead
their assistance. But for two reasons the
women will not call if she be person Of
wisdom and fOrethought. The FIRST rea-
son is these robbers are known 10 carry
long, sharp swords, which they WELD
with urerring skill and TIE strength Of
desperation, knowing as they do that
capture means death, and murder IS their
only escape.
The second reason IS more powerful
than the first in t.lat il touches what is
more dear to woman than life be she OF
whatever nation. Society with her is 50
constituted that 10 BE detected IL com
pany with q sJrsIg &c man. be he even a
robber in the act Of stealing her jewels,
is a disgrace worse than the loss Of her
mucE-prizel ornaments; so that rather
than call crowd of witnesses TO her dis
grace she VIII part with her val1ables
and keep quiet, excusing their loss 10 her
husband or master "a best she may.

Dost Thou Remember.

Dost thou remember, love, one night in June?
Above our heads the stars their tapers
swung;
And from her fleecy couch the fair young
moon
Lifted herself and, smiling DER us. hung.
Dost thou remember, love? All! life for me
Can never hold Il brighter memory.
The waves crept up and whispered at our feet,
AS tho they had n tender tale to tell;
Across the hills there came I'm cadence sweet,
The silvery swayings of distant bell.
And with thy kisses ruby-lipped, divine,
My soul was reeling as from draughts OF
WINE!
How in my hand thy vibrant fingers lay?
How quickly moon and evening star had set,
And how the moments Sped like dreams
away?
Thou dost remember? Thou dldst only feign?
Say il again, my own! again-again!

minded policy adopted for the woman in
farm life which caused the farm to be
slowly but surely turned over to the foreign
element, which thought nothing of hitch
ing woman, perhaps yoked with dog,
to the pillow. She then spoke of the poetic
side of farm life which is wont to appear
in song and story, and the results of farm
life as seen at just such fairs as this, and
the prose side, the hard toll,
the quick breaking down of the
physical woman, the fact that three
fourths of the women in insane ssylums
are farmers wifes and going further pro-
posed as remedy the cooperative system
of sharing toll which is now so success
fully used by families in eastern towns
and cities, the system of course was not
exact in its methods with that of the cities
and towns but similar in its adaptive
qualities and really practicable, and
as given by the fair speaker seemed
not only feasible but desirable.
The above is the merest skel-
eton of the address, as it was impossible
to take full report in time for this issue
of the BAZoO, fact which it regrets-but
il may be stated that Miss Couzins is a most
excellent and eloquent speaker, who hav-
ing ideas, knows how to give them utter
ance, and she was listened 10 with the ut
most attention throughout. No doubt, no
only the wives of the farmers, but the far
mers themselves appreciated all they heard
and if they do not adopt her plan fully,
they will at least do so partly.
